What will be interesting is how The Shanny Brain Trust handles the QB sitch. IMO Beck looks way in over his head. Badly really. But at this point switching back to Rex is a flat out admission by the staff that we don't have a QB. Even though everyone already knows that, the coaching staff has "staked their reputation" on these guys. It will be interesting to see if, or when, they actually admit we're nowhere at the most important position in the game.

All that said, the notion that teams intentionally tank is dumb.

At this point, why not admit it? Why not say we don't have a QB, but we think we have some receivers and running backs and they would benefit more right now from Rex throwing them the ball than Beck. Or heck, just start Crompton already
